Bengaluru, Jul 3: The Karnataka government is allowing select asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic Covid-19 patients to recuperate at home as part of home isolation guidelines, an official said on Friday.
"Only those who are asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic shall be allowed to be in isolation at home," said a health official, highlighting that such patients should be properly oriented on home isolation.
However, before home isolation, a health team will visit the patient's house and assess its suitability for executing home isolation.
Similarly, the patient should be provided with a tele-consultation link for initial triage, daily follow up and during the entire home isolation time.
For a daily update, the patient isolated at home should give a report on his health status to the physician or health authorities.
"The home isolation shall be with the knowledge of the family members, neighbours, treating physician and local health authorities," said the official.
Though home isolation is allowed, it is not a blanket permission for all asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic cases in Karnataka to avail.
"Such cases should have the requisite facility at their residence for self-isolation and also for quarantining the family contacts. A care giver should be available to provide care on 24x7 basis," said the official.
Likewise, the caregiver should also have a regular communication link between him and the hospital during the home isolation.
No patient above 50 years will be allowed to avail home isolation.
"If the patient has the following comorbidities: hypertension, diabetes, obesity, thyroid disease, they shall be well managed and under good clinical control as assessed by medical officer," he said.
However, patients with comorbidities such as kidney diseases, dialysis, heart diseases, stroke, tuberculosis, cancer and HIV cannot avail home isolation.
Likewise, immunity compromised patients and those on steroids also cannot be on home isolation.
Though pregnant women are not allowed to avail this facility, lactating women are allowed after due instruction and assessment.
The Health Department has also issued several other guidelines and protocols for a patient choosing home isolation.

When the people who associate partners with ALLAH revert and Worship ALLAH alone... They are already be forgiven for their Past Sin. ALLAH is most forgiving and most merciful....
May Allah forgive us and make us one of the inheriters of the Jannah.
ALHAMDULILLAH, MAY ALLAH SWT INCREASE THEIR IMAAN.AND FORGIVE THEIR PAST SINS. AAMEEN
Islam is the only religion accept by the almighty ALLAH (God) . Please make a research Y God accept only ISLAM. There is a life after death... We Muslims know that and U never understand this cos the Guidance comes only when U learn about the CREATOR who created U, ME and all that EXists...
Read QURAN with translation... U can also check online , i prefer Quranproject which is well explained to those who dont know about ISLAM and the one GOD who is the God of all that exists.
Finally Read it and U also have the choice to accept it or Not ... There is no compulsion in Religion... (What a better way Allah gives u the choice to accept it or not)
Islam is a true religion there is no place in Islam for Nama, Rama, Duma, Thoma and Roma all the prayers for Almighty Allah and leave and live for Allah, this is not only in Saudi all Muslim countries Non Muslims attract to Islam, one who see true Muslims and their believe in Allah they accept Islam..Insha Allah Islam will spread every where. Non believers and terrorists who do terrorism in the name of Islam will disappear one day Insha Allah
Dear Brother Ahmed, I agree with your comments.. But we cant throw stones for all dogs which keeps barking on roadside right? Bolney waley bolney do jo aney waley ayengey.. Cos Islam is such a religion if one non muslim goes deep into Quran he will not be non muslim later.. In Sha Allah many more to come in future
AlHamdulillah
Allahu Akber
Ma Sha Allah.. Welcome to Islam brothers and sisters.. May Allah bless you and all..
